bazball stuff from Che so far eh

btw how good was Pujara yesterday? I hope people don't forget his contribution when we get the inevitable fireworks from Pant this morning.

He is showing how openers should bat in this current era.

i have to search for clips on youtube

I couldn't find the relevant bit on youtube, but here's the script.

Ebeneezer Blackadder: Well, I’ve got all the presents…

Baldrick: …and I’ve nearly finished the Christmas cards.

Ebeneezer Blackadder: Oh, splendid! Let me see… [opens up a card he has picked up from the desk] “A Very Messy Christmas.” I’m sorry, Mr Baldrick — shouldn’t that be ‘merry’?

Baldrick: “A Merry Messy Christmas”? All right, but the main thing is that it should be messy — messy cake; soggy pudding; great big wet kisses under the mistletoe…

Ebeneezer Blackadder: Yes… I fear, Mr Baldrick, that the only way you’re likely to get a big wet kiss at Christmas — or, indeed, any other time — is to make a pass at a water closet. However, be that as it may… [Baldrick gives him the card again] “A Merry Messy Christmas.” ‘Christmas’ as an H in it, Mr Baldrick.

Baldrick: Oh…

Ebeneezer Blackadder: …and an R. Also an I, and an S. Also T and M and A… …and another S. Oh, and you’ve missed out the C at the beginning. Congratulations, Mr Baldrick! Something of a triumph, I think — you must be the first person ever to spell ‘Christmas’ without getting any of the letters right at all.

Pant is worried about Root

Did he take a pee break yet?

 

[GIMH]

Jimmy will be shattered the pace at which Root is getting through his overs

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Sorry England, but India looks unlikely to give up a needless team hat trick to give you a sniff.

 

[chris.hinton]

Root has softened up Pant. Broad will get him

why does he look like a corpse

why does he look like a corpse

[chris.hinton]

He looks ready to tear India again

Not the worst call mate, even if it was Pujara.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

I see Pujara hasn't scored a century since 2019. Long way to go but I hope he gets another today. Also he's on 18 - would be great if he gets to 20 100s.

HERE WE GO

Oops, sorry Che Pu!
